US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping emphasized stability and cooperation during Xi’s Washington visit, but public remarks and ceremonial events produced little evidence of substantive progress on major disputes. The leaders agreed to support each other’s hosting of the APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting and G20 summit in 2026, and discussed the Middle East, Ukraine and the Korean Peninsula. They also addressed security, technology and artificial intelligence, while China announced a panda gift and a new student exchange program. A year-long trade truce was extended by two months, with analysts expecting a possible further extension, but disagreements over agricultural purchases, rare earth minerals, weapons sales and AI regulation continued to cloud the outlook.
